The three holes must then be plugged with the plastic plug caps supplied in the bag containing the in- struction booklet, which can be found inside the drum.

Positioning

Install the machine on a flat hard floor. Make sure that air circulation around the machine is not impeded by carpets, rugs etc. Check that the machine does not touch the wall or furniture. Level the washing machine by raising or lowering the two front feet. If necessary, check the setting with a spirit level. Any necessary adjustment can be made with a spanner. Accurate levelling prevents vibration, noise and displacement of the machine during operation.

Caution! Never place cardboard, wood or similar materials under the machine to compensate for any

unevenness in the floor.

Caution! Do not use the hose from your previous appliance to connect to water supply.

Connect the hose to a tap with a 3/4” thread. Always use the hose supplied with the appliance.

The machine end of the in- let hose can be turned in any direction. Set the hose correctly by loosening the ring nut. After positioning the inlet hose, be sure to tighten the ring nut again to prevent leaks.

The inlet hose must not be lengthened. If it is too short and you do not wish to move the tap, you will have to purchase a new, longer hose specially designed for this type of use.

Water drainage

The end of the drain hose can be positioned in three ways:

Hooked over the edge of a sink using the plastic hose guide supplied with the machine.

In this case, make sure the end cannot come unhooked when the machine is emptying. This could be done by tying it to the tap with a piece of string or attaching it to the wall.
